    !!!JNE is struggling with COVID19!!! / #janganpakejne

    The the impact of the pandemic is definitely slowing USPS deliveries in the Midwestern USA. UPS and FedEx are also slower, but generally only by a day or two. Around here, the only thing not slowed by the pandemic is the self-serving spin (read lies) emanating from Trump and his minions.

    Hi I'm Ella from Bekasi, anyone here lives in Bekasi?

    Welcome Ella. Our house is a bit southwest of Bekasi, in Pasar Rebo. At least I think its still there; we have not been able to get back for our annual extended visit.

    America on Fire

    Colin Kaepernick was nailed to the cross by NFL management and owners, now they are resurrecting him. The winds of change seem to be blowing in a new direction.

    America on Fire

    With a white supremacist in the White House, threatening to use the military to federalize law enforcement in states with approaches not to his liking, "states rights" is taking on a new meaning.

    I am waiting for Boeing to reach $100.

    Mudik and C19

    The US Embassy in Jakarta in its virus updates had, 2 days ago, indicated the substance of the walk-back. The important item for us was that international flights would continue. We are still expecting (hoping) that the only new thing we will need after landing is a recent doctor's statement...

    Mudik and C19

    We are attempting to bribe our household staff to delay pulang kampung until the worst has passed. Don't know if its going to be successful.

    I love their logic!

    I am familiar with the product. Here in Iowa its used not for moles, but rather ground squirrels, which are herbivorous. The confusion may stem from the many names given the the animals: lickertail, picket pin, prairie squirrel, prairie gopher, grass gopher, ground gopher, squinny and probably...

    Not so sure about using corn. Gophers are carnivores.

    Coping with lockdown.

    Sorry, that's gopher tunnels, of course. They both do utilize holes in the ground, though.

    I love their logic!

    No golf courses within BB gun range, but now that the ground is thawed and soft, gophers and moles are a serious problem. Poison worms and trip-spring ground penetrating spikes are more effective.

    DON'T PANIC.... well, maybe a little bit.

    I think that's the test for me, as I need something to convince those in authority that I am OK to board my flight to Jakarta.

    I love their logic!

    I have a Red Rider BB gun in the garage to encourage the deer to finish munching on the flowers and exit the back yard. Does that count?

    Where are you bunkering for Covid-19?

    Its kind of a meaningless choice of answers for us. We had hoped to return to Jakarta for the summer. Hope is one thing, the reality of travel during this pandemic is another. Its near impossible to fly anywhere these days, let alone 1/2 around the world. Getting a visa has become a crap shoot...

    The Ugly American attitude is alive and well.

    Coping with lockdown.

    At C-Fresh, the largest Asian Grocery in Des Moines, Iowa's capital city and 40 miles to the NW of us, there was absolutely no rice. The store usually has one long row of shelves stacked almost to the ceiling with 50 pound bags of rice in varieties most Americans have never heard of. All gone...

    I thought the Prince of Wales was pretty much a outcast well before Covid-19.

    I love their logic!

    I wonder if Trump check to find out if the Japanese internment camps are still functional.

    Canine room and board can be pricey; perhaps Dave's dogs subsist on raw burglar burgers.

    Travel advice website -useful.

    Travel plans are, of course, up in the air. (or more appropriately, "possibly grounded.") The Indonesian Foreign Minister has issued a statement that visa "applicants must provide a health certificate issued by a relevant health authority from their respective countries..." I can get a...
